Australian director David Michod's Mad Max-ish new film The Rover is coming out June 13th. Michod directed 2010's Animal Kingdom, which was a great movie, and Guy Pearce is in this one as well, which is always a good thing. Can't so much say the same about Robert Pattinson, who I have yet to see give a decent performance. Kinda baffles me that he's managed to get all these parts in would-be prestigious projects lately- I'm sorry but the guy can't act to save his life. Even in this he looks like he's struggling with the accent, and if anything he should have a leg up on that because he's a Brit! Oh, well- we'll see if the movie can overcome what looks like a fairly significant role for him here.
